[AK4490]
(2)-2. READ Operations
Set the R/W bit = “1” for the READ operation of the AK4490. After transmission of data, the master can read
the next address’s data by generating an acknowledge instead of terminating the write cycle after the receipt of
the first data word. After receiving each data packet the internal address counter is incremented by one, and the
next data is automatically taken into the next address. If the address exceeds “09H” prior to generating stop
condition, the address counter will “roll over” to “00H” and the data of “00H” will be read out.
The AK4490 supports two basic read operations: Current Address Read and Random Address Read.
(2)-2-1. Current Address Read
The AK4490 has an internal address counter that maintains the address of the last accessed word incremented
by one. Therefore, if the last access (either a read or write) were to address “n”, the next CURRENT READ
operation would access data from the address “n+1”. After receipt of the slave address with R/W bit “1”, the
AK4490 generates an acknowledge, transmits 1-byte of data to the address set by the internal address counter
and increments the internal address counter by 1. If the master does not generate an acknowledge but generates
a stop condition instead, the AK4490 ceases the transmission.

(2)-2-2. Random Address Read
The random read operation allows the master to access any memory location at random. Prior to issuing the
slave address with the R/W bit “1”, the master must first perform a “dummy” write operation. The master
issues a start request, a slave address (R/W bit = “0”) and then the register address to read. After the register
address is acknowledged, the master immediately reissues the start request and the slave address with the R/W
bit “1”. The AK4490 then generates an acknowledge, 1 byte of data and increments the internal address
counter by 1. If the master does not generate an acknowledge but generates a stop condition instead, the
AK4490 ceases the transmission.
